still had no real joy with this but iv just won a ati 5870 on ebay should i get a good deal better hash rate than 70-90Kh/s?

Heres my best settings for GTX 780
cudaminer.exe -i 0 -l K42x6 -C 2 -o stratum+tcp://yourpoolIP:port -O account:pass
Card runs 1150/1800 and gets avg 360kh/s

Interesting. I should also try to autotune the Kepler kernel on my 780 Ti. Maybe I get a few extra kHash/s out.
Did you allow 100% TDP, or more?

Your settings should scale to the 780 Ti  as  15/12 * 360 kHash = 450 kHash according to the number of enabled SMX engines. But then of course there's also the thermal and power (TDP) limitation which can ruin the day.

Im running custom bios from overclock.net GTX780 forum topic. This allowes me way higher Power limit. With card at 1150/1800 1.13v i only have 55% of my power limit used. So TDP limit isnt any problem.
My card is Gigabyte WF3. So cooling is also no problem.

Maybe the 64 bit compiled kernel version is running into a register limitation, as pointers are then 64bit and require 2 registers each.
I don't think that's the reason.
On my GTX660 the 64bit version is just as fast as the 32bit version.

Maybe there's a difference between AMD and Intel CPU?

I am only getting about 136 KH/s from my K5000s. I've tried many different settings and autotune but that is the best I get.

It is unfortunate because I have 3 of them and am about to get 3 K6000s. Surely these cards should be capable of much better performance?

I did some research and tried a lot of different settings. Those are the best.

Currently getting 180-190kH/s on my 660Ti (not OC) with this setup:
cudaminer.exe -H 1 -d 0 -i 0 -C2 -l K14x14
on 64bit cudaminer it is slightly slower and im getting 160kH/s

It's very similar for me. Interesting launch config by the way. I shall try that one.

Maybe the 64 bit compiled kernel version is running into a register limitation, as pointers are then 64bit and require 2 registers each. I can compare the resulting PTX code to verify the assumption.

im using the x64 one should i try the x86 one?

try both when in doubt. The 64bit version seems to handle the Kepler kernel somewhat slower than the 32 bit version. Still need to figure out why that is. I haven't experienced any difference with the Fermi kernels on my system.

thanks for replys ill try those settings out now thanks and yes its only with auto detect i dont know enough about it to start fiddling with things lol

Hi all hopefully somone can help im having real trouble with my card its a msi GTX 560ti if i let cudaminer auto detect it crashes after about 5 mins and restarts my pc.
Only with autodetect?

has anyone managed to get a stable batch file for my card?

I always launched my 560Ti with -i 0 -C 1 -l F32x4

I've now replaced it with something faster....

Like the program.. It just doesn't want to play nice with my gtx 460 and 560.. Stratum disconnects all the time... Hope you nail it down soon.

My guess is that your pool is currently acting flaky. Sometimes this is because their servers are overloaded, other times it may be a database issue, and occasionally it is a DOS attack on the pool or their networking infrastructure.

Just change pools temporarily to see if the problem goes away.

One Gigabyte GTX 780Ti, cudaminer.exe 32 bit executable

because with 100% TDP and 82 Degrees Celsius temperature cap I was running into temperature throttling all the time, I used these settings: 105% TDP allowance, 92 Degrees max - but boost clock offset and memory clock offset remained at 0:

-H 1 -l T30x16 -i 0 -m 1    430 kHash/s  (varies between 420 and 443 kHash/s)

-l T102x4 is decent as well: 420 kHash/s
-l T15x24 is also a decent launch config, but slightly worse than T102x4.

The card performs well within expectations I'd say!

Here's a part of my initial autotuning with the Titan kernel:

i will install and benchmark the 780Ti once my son is asleep. He is also the reason for slow development from May till November, lol ;-)

Once again Spoetnik. I do take source code submissions, bug reports with detailed information but not shit like this. Get off my lawn, once more.

and do respect the GPL when you share binaries.

github does indeed have a nice fork feature. And your fixes really should go upstream into pooler's cpuminer. Suit yourself.

i made a 64bit build many months ago before fruittool posted his i believe but i used cuda 5.0 not 5.5
i've mentioned this but i also noticed before chubner1 you said it did not help speed (which it did of course on Fermi i tested)
i went on since July making tons of other features and fix etc and even shared it with some people around the scene they love it.
but if i comment here i get ignored and or argued with lol
So i keep my version to myself Wink

i fixed the stratum freezing issue on my builds and it didn't happen for a couple months..
[...]
other FIX's and feature improvements also Wink
[...]
(and so on, and so forth)

Well, so you took a working Open Source code, made some improvements, and *even* shared with a couple of friends. Do I read that right?

How very generous of you...
(in case you didn't notice, this was sarcastic)

Please tell, why didn't you make a fork on github instead?
Oh, and that screenshot of yours.. I do not see even a slight mention of the original author(s). Not nice.

Anyway, the recent 'official' version from cbuchner1's github repo compiles and works for me just fine.
Dual GTX480 setup. Around 440 kh/s combined.
